RICHMOND, Ky. – Rivals Eastern Kentucky University and Morehead State University will meet on the volleyball court on Tuesday at McBrayer Arena on the EKU campus.  The match is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

The EKU volleyball team will be selling rally towels before the match.  All proceeds will go to assist a member of the Colonel volleyball family with their battle against breast cancer.  Rally towels are available for a minimum donation of $5.

The Colonels (13-13, 8-7 OVC) rebounded from a four-match road losing streak by picking up a pair of wins at home over the weekend.  Eastern shutout SIU Edwardsville 3-0 before staging a comeback to beat Eastern Illinois 3-2.

Morehead State (19-6, 14-1 OVC) suffered its first conference loss of the season on Friday, falling to Eastern Illinois 3-0.  The Eagles rebounded with a 3-0 victory over SIUE.
